Re: overriding motherboard ROM with a peripheral card in a platinum iie

Rather than checking all 16 address bits for $CFFF, usually the inverted
version of I/O strobe is anded with (A8 & A9 & A10). This results in a
reset of the flip-flop with any address CFxx and the loss of 256 bytes
of PROM space, but fewer chips are required to implement this.
And those 256 bytes can conveniently be used for the CnXX space, so that
you need only one 2716 for the card.
